Biography

    Flying was something I always wanted to do. In 1992 I decided it was time to fulfill this life long dream. I took my first flight lesson in April of that year and received my private pilot license in September. In 2000 I obtained my flight instructor license and began teaching flying full time in 2002. It takes money, time and a commitment to study to get your pilots license. However, every time I takeoff and climb over the Willamette valley I am extremely pleased that I made that decision to fly. It has been over 17 years and it is still something I look forward to doing every day.

 I have accrued over 3500 hours of flight time and have the following ratings or licenses:

• Instrument rating

• Multi-engine commercial license

• Single engine sea plane private pilot license

• Certified flight instructor license for single engine land aircraft

• Ground instructor license

• Certified flight instructor instrument license for single engine land aircraft

• Advance instrument ground instructor license

• Airline transport pilot license for single engine land aircraft

• Tail wheel endorsement

Biography

   I took my first airplane ride in a sea plane when I was 8 years old.  From that moment on I was hooked.  I earned my private pilot license in 1981.  I followed that with instrument ratings and a commercial license.  In 1989 I received my flight instructor license.   

   Many instructors view teaching as a way to quickly log hours and move on to another type of flying.  As an instructor I already have the job I want.  Simply put, I love to teach.  For this reason, I believe my students benefit from thousands of hours spent teaching flying as a career.

    I have taught students as young as 11 and others as old as 80.  Everyone has a unique learning style, and it is rewarding to me to match my instructional approach to that style.  Whether you are learning to fly for a career or for pleasure or business I will match our program to your goals.

My credentials are:  

• Private Pilot Airplane

• Commercial Pilot Airplane

• Instrument Rating

• Certified Flight Instructor

• Certified Instrument Flight Instructor

• Tail Wheel Certified

• High Performance Endorsement

• D license expert Skydiver with 2,000+ jumps
